I think that’s only at fast food places and convenience stores where they have the fountain machines. My understanding is that you only have to pay for it if you use their cups.

Assuming that the "Lifetime Suspension" label underneath the names are correct, there's more than that:

That explains why they’re charging so much for pop at the liquor store, they gotta make up for those losses somewhere.

It took us 12 years but we finally solved the mystery. As usual, Locke is to blame for another one of society’s ails.

Good work CP!

Good work CP!
Theres an easy solution to this. You just grab the pop and walk away.

They've never stopped me.

Its never occurred to me that they should have and nobody ever tried.

And its an easy mistake to rectify.

"Dude...you have to pay for that."

- "Oh! I do? Okay...no problem."

That sequence of events has just never occurred.

How do you alt-right types measure manhood these days?

I probably have more kids than you, therefore I'm more fertile = more desirable to females.

I'm probably younger than you, again more desirable.

I'm definitely taller than you.

I can do more pushups than you.

Very likely make more money than you.

I'm handier than you.

I drive a bigger truck than you.

Yep. By all accounts, I win. Incel.

You're definitely less insecure than me too, add that to your list.

Aren't 2Ls $3 at most stores now?

If the OP could see the future he would be counting his blessings. I'll take those 2011 prices, even what were considered "rip offs" then

The price bump of snacks and condiments has probably been the worst. I guess one of the benefits of $5-6 chips/crackers is we'll eat less of it

Superstore occasionally has their PC brand Jamaican ginger beer for around a buck or $1.50 I think. Great for mixing drinks IMO, or at least a splash to add depth. But holy hell do those bubbles tickle the nose. I wouldn't expect nor buy it if I saw it in the liquor store though... Branded though I do believe it is like $2.29 or almost $2.99 now.
